So:



All you people with your fancy high falootin' reinforced/ hot rodded/ modded expensive guitars ,,,,,, (Ok, including me,,, I've got plenty of them! :D )

I present to you the weirdest guitar in my collection, as of yesterday:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=7402398713&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&rd=1

$180 with shipping for ,,
this thing is the neck of an old Fender 12 string acoustic guitar attached to a no name purple sparkled electric body with a no name humbucker in the bridge, no name single coil in the neck,, an odd bridge, volume and tone knobs that look like cufflinks from a cheesy tuxedo

It friggin ROCKS! ll that luthiering I did over all those years, and this is the best sounding 12 string electric I've ever played! It was even in tune when it got here.

Whoda thunk?

    Looks like a sweet guitar!! Nice buy!

    The body doesn't really look like a strat. Or is that just my eye sight failing?

    Well, it's definitely not a strat body,,,, more like a scarey 80's purple sparkle body!
    I yanked off the neck to check it over, and it was shimmed with pennies!

    Youthinkyou'reold and I played together last night at an art gallery gig I have on the first Friday of every month, so I used it! You should hear a 12 string tuned to open D minor and slide with a delay and echo and a Shannon phaser and overdrive!
    Weird!

    Art Gallery music!!! :D
